  • Episode 28: Rob Madge
    Actor and Writer Rob Madge (Twitter Content King!!) joins Christopher Bartlett-Walford to share the best listener audition confessions of the week. Those hilarious and embarrassing moments that happen in the casting room, that you DON'T normally get to hear! All anonymous & submitted by performers from around the globe.
    This week's show is rammed with audition nightmares - including some that you sent to Rob, so for the first time ever a guest reads some to our host! We hear how a hungover (still drunk, really) actor managed to just about blag it, how a soft drinks casting ended up in curtains, how a pair of Spider-man pants factored into Rob's audition life, and how a tap dance routine caused someone to have their day come crashing down. All this and LOADS MORE TALES TOO. Honestly it's a BUMPER week!
